Around the Table: A podcast by Building Relations
How can the housing sector navigate decreasing demand for section 106 homes?
In this episode of Around the Table, hosted by Rachel Colgan, Managing Director at Building Relations PR, we explore the critical issue of how the housing sector can navigate the declining demand for Section 106 homes. As housing associations in many parts of the UK are stepping back from bidding on these homes, the resulting decrease in affordable housing has led to delays in broader housing delivery.
Our expert panel—Maggie Rafalowicz, Director at housing consultancy Campbell Tickell, and Kush Rawal, Director at Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing—discuss the wider implications of this collapse, including its impact on the government’s housing goals. They also share insights into the challenges and potential strategies to overcome this crisis, offering listeners a comprehensive view of what the future holds for affordable housing in the UK.
Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation on the housing sector’s most pressing issues and possible solutions.
